PHOENIX — A Maricopa County Superior Court judge has ruled that a 5-year-old Mesa boy with debilitating seizures can be treated with marijuana extract, effectively re-interpreting the Arizona's medical marijuana law.

Judge Katherine Cooper ruled late Friday in preliminary injunction filed by the American Civil Liberties Union that Zander Welton can legally consume extracts.

In her ruling, Cooper says the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act authorizes qualifying patients to use extracts, including CBD oil, adapted from marijuana.
